Toolbox Issue

I create an assembly on my computer using toolbox items such as bolts
and save it on our network. When that same assembly gets opened up
downstairs on a different computer, Solidworks changes the
configuration of some of the toolbok items to different sizes. Example
would be a plate that I put a 1/8 dowel pin in, when opened downstairs,
it puts a 1/2 pin in there instead. Both computers are SW2006, only
differance being im at sp2.0, downstairs is at sp0.0 Could the
different service pack be the issue? Also, is it more beneficial to
put the toolbox on the network? I have assigned configuration specific
properties to most of the toolbox item I regularly use.

 

Matey....What ye don't be understandin is tat you 'ave multiple toolbox
databases on deck! Ye need to be sharin' t' same scurry database, or ye
will continue to blow ye feet off!!!!

Arrrrrrrrrr

 

Solved the problem by moving my toolbox to the network, and changing
the toolbox.ini file to point to it on all computers.

And isnt talk like a pirate day sept 20th????

 

Aye, atta way Mikey! I speak like a pirate on the 20th too....

Also have a look at the official document on this subject.

It would be nice if you quoted a bit for context too.
IF you are going to use Google you can learn how.

HTH

 

Sounds like a "Down Under" Pirate to me. Very refreshing..

Why quote when any normal person with 1/4 of a brain knows enough to
pick on the link in the post.

 

Cliff, this information is for subscription users only. So I can not
quote it.

I am trying to learn. BTW WTF IS HTH??????

This NG is NOT a subscription and you very well can quote a bit
of the post you are responding to. Even using Google groups.

 

Why bother?

 

What was that about? Was he/she right or wrong?

 

Have you tried doing a "Save As" and clicking the references button? This
usually works for me when i insert screws and nuts.
